Dog Training

“Properly trained, a man can be dog's best friend.”

As a certified Animal Behavior Consultant, Eric Wiese has over 15 years experience offering in-home private dog training, comprehensive board & train programs, as well as canine behavior consulting for veterinarians and veterinary staff in the Los Angeles area. In addition, Eric also has extensive experience working with dogs and exotic animals alike in commercials, television and film. He currently has been co-hosting the Emmy Award-winning series Lucky Dog on CBS.

Through Happy Puppy L.A., Eric specializes in puppy development and behavior modification. Eric is Fear Free certified, a member of the International Association of Animal Behavior Consultants (IAABC), an American Kennel Club Canine Good Citizen Evaluator, and a member of the Association of Professional Dog Trainers (APDT). He and the Happy Puppy L.A. staff only use positive reinforcement training methods and work with what motivates each dog without physically or psychologically intimidating them. This means we do NOT use any of the following methods of training - shock/vibrating collars, prong/pinch collars, choke collars, or citronella collars. Instead, motivation could be a range of different stimuli, including treats/food, physical or verbal praise, toys, etc.

Over the years, Eric has been trusted by thousands of pet parents including many celebrity clients such as
